%1% Making ponies smile

It was a dark and stormy night for Equestria and while everyone was inside their homes, one wasn't. A blue mare with her cart growing ever so heavy; trekked through the rain to reach her new destination. "Why of all days did the weather ponies schedule a heavy rainstorm for Trixie to go through!?" Trixie was not pleased and talking to herself wasn't going anywhere fast when all she needed was speed.

Trixie was supposed to be heading to a fundraiser and be there by tomorrow for all the fillies and colts who were in the hospital. She, most of all wanted to see them smile one of the biggest smiles ever! But Trixie would have to go through this rain first. Tired and dirty was all this show pony was now, all the rain made her wet, sapping the energy from her and the mud sucking at her hooves didn't help. Her cape was stuck to her back and her hat, in the cart so not to get wet. Through all this she trekked onward.

No pony knew why she would go through the trouble of rain or worse to get to charities or or just to see the little foals. She would get nothing out of it but a good name, and Trixie didn't even want that out of visiting these events. She and she alone, knew the reason to why she did these things.

Finally through all the rain she made it to here destination, Manehattan. Finally Trixie granted herself a moment to rest and she unhooked herself from her cart and went inside. She flicked on an oil lamp and floated a towel over to her. “I finally made it, it felt like forever..." Trixie stated to herself while drying herself off.

Trixie was tired after the trip so she fall on her bed, but when no sleep came she used her magic and a blue lite engulfed her horn as the roof went transparent, she lay in bed staring up at the clouds and rain as it fell hitting the roof with a pitter patter. She stopped using her magic and focused on the noise the rain produced and finally fell asleep.

Trixie awoke and got dressed for the big day today. She couldn't wait to see the foal’s faces as she showed them magic tricks. But this morning she remembered a bit of her past she had buried deep and not wanted it found. She tried to push it away but she could not, for it was stuck in her mind and won’t go without her thinking about it. So finally when preparations were made she stopped to think about her past, that one fateful day...

Trixie opened her eyes to find her and her friends were playing by the river, only she was further away and she saw a smaller version of herself playing by the river. There was a large amount of trees and the river made a tricking sound from the shallow parts of it. Trixie ran back and her friends stared at her as she said "watch this" then Trixie's horn started to glow as a bubble of water floated up and she floated over to her friends with great difficultly.

But as she did so she realized one of her friends were really close to the water and as she lost focus, the water bubble popped and the water came right into that friend swiping her off her feet and into the water. Trixie was watching this memory in horror as all she could do was remember. As the little filly was swept into the water, all her friends were calling to her friend running toward her trying to grab her as her friend fought for life. They were just about to catch her, then her friend fell down a small waterfall and hit her head on the shallow water splitting her head open. Trixie watched in horror as her friend’s lifeless corpse floated down the stream.

Trixie opened her eyes and a tear rolled down her face but she quickly wiped it away and checked the time. it was almost noon and that was when she was supposed to perform. She rushed and grabbed the rest of her things and ran to the hospital. In the mad dash she forgot the one thing she carried with her to most of her shows, a photo. A photo of her friend that died on that leaving a scar on her heart, one that would never heal. Ever since that day ponies who remembered say it wasn't her fault but she knew she was the one to blame. She ran back and grabbed the picture she almost forgot, Trixie looked at it for a moment and ran towards the hospital, leaving only a tear behind from where she stood.

Upon her arrival, she was escorted to a room where all the foals were sitting and waiting for her to come. When she walked in the door, she smiled as the fillies and colts cheered even before she started. as she went on with her shoe, more cheers came from her crowed after every trick.

When she was finished they all cheered once more and Trixie felt a lot better even crying tears of joy a bit but enough for one of the crowed members to ask Trixie "Excuse me miss... why are you crying?"

Trixie wiped the tears away and said to the one who asked the question as well as the rest of the crowed “Sometimes in life we have bad moments, sometimes good ones. Sometimes when you cry, it doesn't mean it’s bad. It means you’re happy, and right now... i couldn't be happier"

The crowd cheered as Trixie finished her sentence and some of the members of the crowed started to cry, the smiles and the tears of pure joy made Trixie's heart nearly jump out of her chest. Before leaving she walked up to the foal who asked the question and gave him a flower and said "thank you for reminding me" and left the room.

Trixie was happy after that, so happy that on her way home she couldn't stop smiling. And when she went to bed later that night, she fell asleep with a grin on her face saying "maybe everything will be alright." then she soon fell asleep.
